To the comment about "buy up" options for the Platinum breakfast (at Surf Lanai), they are $15 each and include items like Belgian waffles. I will take a photo during our next breakfast and post it.

This means that Platinum guests now have at least two options for breakfast, both being similar. The Platinum breakfast amenity provides a broader window (9:30am vs. 11am). It is an excellent non-meat option, imo.
wow, you're right. this is great. now to decide if i want to stay here or the westin moana. even though the base rate is more at the RH, no resort fee makes it cheaper than the westin!
